Deceased Name: JOHN EDWARD BOYD , S&L EXECUTIVE
A number of Charlotteans own their homes instead of renting because of the

compassion of John Edward Boyd, who died Monday, June 1, 1987, at Presbyterian Hospital. He was 75.

''John was a champion for the little guy. A lot of people that probably couldn't have bought a home under normal circumstances were able to because of John's efforts to work it out,'' says Joe King, president of Home Federal Savings and Loan of Charlotte.

Mr. Boyd, a Charlotte native, started working as a teller at Home Federal in 1933 after graduating from Davidson College. He rose to senior vice president, and when he retired in 1981, he was elected chairman of the S&L's board of directors.

Because of the Depression ''1933 was a trying time for financial institutions,'' King noted. ''They let John work on a week-to-week basis before they decided to make him a full-time employee.'' ''He was a real Southern gentleman in the classic sense,'' King said. ''He thought that there was a proper way to do most things, and he adhered to that.''

Mr. Boyd of 5630 Timber Ln. was a U.S. Army veteran who served in both the European and Pacific theaters. He was a member of Sardis Presbyterian Church, where he designed and maintained the Cloister Garden.

Survivors are his wife, Mary Elizabeth Brantley Boyd; daughter, Mrs. Mary Abernathy of Matthews; and four grandchildren.

Funeral is 11 a.m. Wednesday at Sardis Presbyterian Church. Burial is in the church cemetery. Harry and Bryant Funeral Home is in charge. Memorials can be made to the Cloister Garden, care of Sardis Presbyterian Church, 6100 Sardis Rd., Charlotte, N.C. 28226. Visitation is 7 to 8:30 tonight at Harry and Bryant.

Moore and Frances H. Fort. She was also looking forward to the birth in February, of a new great-granddaughter, to be named Anna Abernathy.

720 Christopher Phinney was the sixth child born to Patrick and Margaret McCullough Phinney.  He spent most of his life in Fairfield Co., S.C. just south of Chester Co., S.C. where his mother and father lived their entire lives.  Christopher married Sarah (maiden name believed to be Sterling) and had two children,   John William  born 1847 in Fairfield County, S.C. and Margaret J. Phinney (named for his Mother) born in Fairfield County, S.C. in 1849.  The first record we have of Christopher on his own is the 1850 census where he is listed married to Sarah.  In this census he is shown as a planter in Fairfield County.   His real estate and personal property are valued at $10,440.  After the 1860 Census, but before the 1870 census, Christopher is gone.  It is assumed he was a casualty of the Civil War because we know he enlisted on August 1, 1863.  By this time the cause of the South was going badly, and, even though Christopher was 44 years of age , he enlisted as a private in Company H, 4th S.C. State Troops.  In January of 1864, we know he was called up from the 24th S.C. Militia and was given extra duty as a courier.  The last record shows him as such until January 31, 1864.  No further record has been found.Real Estate records, assumed posthumous, show his name on deed grantor lists in Fairfield Co in 1863, (still living), 1865, 1867, 1868, presumed dead.  In 1882 and 1884, the county records appear to have recorded the last disposition of any property in Fairfield County, S.C. under his name.  By the 1870 Census, Sarah is in Drew County, Arkansas living with her two children.   It can be assumed that the  aftermath of the Civil War drove them from South Carolina.  Sarah died in 1888 in Lincoln County, Arkansas.   (Lincoln County is adjacent to Drew Co on the north).  She is buried in the Ebenezer Family Cemetery along side her daughter Margaret Phinney Boyd.  This cemetery is still in existence (1999) and both headstones remain.  It is maintained by the Boyd family and located in a  wooded section of the county.   PHINNEY, Christopher (I1638)
